Bob,
Actually, I swap the two 1GB memory modules and results are the same.
Also, another problem running Vista with 2GB, I often get this error:

"Superfetch has stopped working" - "A problem caused the program to stop
working correctly. Please close the program."

What mode is Channel A, DIMM 0 with 1GB and Channel A, DIMM 1 has 1GB.
